You might be in Texas...





On a recent trip from the Ft. Worth area... and realized... only in Texas!  I recalled the culture shock I went through in moving here.  So here are a few of my own hill folk jokes...
  1. If you are certain the locals are speaking English, but you can't understand them...
  2. If a house is trimmed in burnt orange...
  3. If you watch more High School than Professional football...
  4. If the homecoming corsage weighs more than your date...
  5. If you the tumbleweed is larger than your SUV...
  6. If your belt buckle weighs more than your shoes...
  7. If you can drive all day without leaving the state...
  8. If you see more Rebel than US  flags..
  9. If your jeans are so heavily starched that they hold you up...
  10. If your limo has long horns on the grill...
  11.  If buying a family-friendly vehicle consists of buying a king-cab rather than a standard cab pick-up...
  12. And lastly the one that brought it all to mind...If you can pick up a snack for yourself and alfalfa for your livestock at the corner service station...you might be in Texas.
What are some of the things you enjoy most about the Six Flagged State?

  1. From a childhood memory: If your grandma gives you spoons to dig in the dirt driveway but you have to give them back for supper.
